Chase Winovich Scouting Report

STRENGTHS: Chase Winovich plays the game all out, every single snap…a true blue collar type of player, Winovich galvanizes his defensive teammates…Winovich plays with proper technique and is relatively polished in the nuances of the game…possesses a variety of pass rush moves…good, quick hands…can shed a block at the point of contact…relentless drive…his quickness off the line of scrimmage gives the opposition fits…

WEAKNESSES: Chase Winovch needs to become a more consistent form tackler and wrap up thoroughly…finds himself moved past the backfield with ease far too often…Chase Winovich has shown some stiff tendencies…

COMP: Dee Ford

OVERALL: Chase Winovich may not be the high-tier athlete that several of his contemporaries are, but he certainly gets the most out of his athletic gifts…relentless is the best way to describe his overall game—leaves it all out there on the field…the problem is that he does not have the best bend off the edge, so he is countered relatively easy by bigger, stronger athletes—which is what he will see a ton of at the NFL level. Chase Winovich brings high-energy and excellent intangibles, so there is something to like here…in a draft class that is loaded on the defensive line, Chase Winovich can get lost in the shuffle…I’m expecting a run at the position early and often in the 1st round, so I’m expecting that Chase Winovich could become a surprise 1st rounder in the 2019 NFL Draft.
